Superintendent Smith, OF the public
schools, has issued the following circu-
lar to the principals OF all the schools.
1t will be thus seen that he is dong all
in his power to protect alike the chill
dren and the teachers in this matter:
OFFICE OF SUPT. OF SCHOOLS,
San Antonio, February 4, 1887.
To the principals Of the schools:
Grave and sweeping charges in regard
to the forcing Of the children 10 our
schools to eat their lunches on the
school grounds, regardless of the inclem-
ency Of the weather, have been made
through the daily papers.
While l am unwilling to believe
that any teacher has been so
thoughtless as to require this
of the children, yet l deem it advis-
able in the absence of rule of the
Board OF Education on this subject, to
direct that children be required to eat
their lunches In their respective class
rooms, II the weather Is either cold or
damp, that teachers shall carefully at
tend to the health and comfort Of the
children and shall not permit them to
unnecessarily expose themselves In in
element weather. Respectfully,
[Signed. j Z. SMITH,

Editor LIGHT:
The coin referred to in your yester-

keepers and others began to issue this
private currency to supply the defici-
ency, and they continued to coin them

the government prohibited their COIN
age. Cincinnati issued 900 varieties;
